Michael Sam Sr. instead had some despicably harsh words for his son after hearing the news. He reportedly learned about Michael being gay after receiving a text message from him simply saying:

"Dad, I’m gay.”

Sam Sr. was eating at Denny’s when he received the message and admitted that he couldn’t finish his food. He told reporters:

"I couldn’t eat no more, so I went to Applebee’s to have drinks. I don’t want my grandkids raised in that kind of environment.”

Bluuuugh!

His comments get worse though.

He continued spewing his ignorant viewpoints, saying that he’s, “old school,” and “a man and a woman kind of guy.” He even suggested that he would be uncomfortable seeing an openly gay player in the NFL, even if that player happens to be his own kid!

That just breaks our hearts.

Michael Sam led the SEC last season with 11.5 sacks and 19 tackles for loss. He’s a football player, and a damn good one at that.

There’s no reason why he shouldn’t be drafted in the upcoming NFL draft.

And there’s no reason why a parent shouldn’t support such a fine young man, regardless of their sexuality!

We as ashamed of Michael Sam Sr. as we are PROUD of his son.

We hope you change your tune, sir. Because being on the wrong side of history is bad enough. But turning your back on family in the process is just about as bad as it gets!

I applaud Michael Sam Jr., but I think that, so long as he conveys them respectfully, his father is also entitled to his beliefs, even if they are antiquated. However, I think the first job as a parent is to support your child against the rest of the world so, even if he had those beliefs, he should've kept them private or discussed them alone with his son, not gone to the NY Times and essentially railroad his own child.

Like I said, if you have a "conservative" belief system, so long as you remain openly respectful, I think you're entitled to feel that way, but the way he went about conveying his beliefs was entirely wrong.

Well sure seems like the masses are selling out to this whole gay thing. F@ck the media and hollywood. A bunch of f'ing queer and fake Jew sellouts. F u all for your sinful ways. U will have to answer to the most high for your filthiness. Thats how a good dad would respond under the shocking circumstances. I feel sorry for the dad.
